Samsung Galaxy Note20 Review - Not always better than the Note10
Dimmed. The Samsung Galaxy Note20 is more than $300 less than the Ultra model. Looking at the specs sheet we can spot a few cut corners, but it is not immediately clear whether or not the more expensive Note20 is really worth its premium or, more importantly, whether the Note20 worth switching to...- color-accurate display, powerful S-pen, spacious and fast USF 3.1 storage, good cameras, decent speakers
- 5G not standard but optional, no microSD support, darker display than its predecessor, only 60 Hz panel, no aptX HD or Adaptive aptX
Samsung Galaxy Note20 5G Review – Is This the Lighter, Slimmer, Better Note?
The Galaxy Note20 5G is a more affordable option compared to its pricier sibling with much of the same aesthetics and gains access to the same processor, 5G connectivity and the full functionality of the series’ fabled SPen though if you are looking for better value and can live without the stylus,...- Responsive and innovative SPen stylus, good cameras, smooth performance, refined and elegant design
- No expandable memory, uses polycarbonate instead of metal and glass, screen capped at 60Hz refresh rate, no 3.5mm audio jack
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 review: lacking any real punch
I've been talking a lot about the Samsung Galaxy Note 20. A 60 Hz display, a plastic back, the Exynos 990 processor: all for £849. After having criticized it rather harshly when it was first released, I'll let you find out in this review whether I had set my expectations for this phablet way too...- Beautiful OLED display, Versatile camera module setup, Great performance for everyday tasks, OneUI 2.5
- Poor battery life, Exynos 990 overheats easily, Plastic design, Insane price point, Poor S-Pen implementation
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 (Review Samsung Galaxy Note 20 128GB)
A more affordable phone for S Pen lovers- Excellent S Pen stylus, Less expensive than the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and S20+
- Middling value for the price, Digital zoom isn't great
Samsung Galaxy Note 20
The Galaxy Note 20 will not be remembered as a high point for the Note series. It loses out on too many of the higher-end elements of Galaxy phones without a commensurate drop in cost.- Fun-to-use cameras, S-Pen is excellent for digital drawing, Powerful, even if it's beaten by the competition
- Mediocre battery life, 60Hz phone in a 90/120Hz world, Flat glass front, plastic back
Samsung Galaxy Note20 review: The plastic isn't the problem
In the last year or so, Samsung has started splitting up its flagship experience with new "Ultra" devices. At first, it seemed like these new, higher-end phones simply had more and better stuff to elevate them further, but with the new Note20 series, I think it's clear Samsung is intentionally...- Software OneUI is pleasant to use now (even if Samsung's stock launcher is still derpy)., Size and shape Samsung made a flat screen work at this size without being awkward or unwieldy., Performance This is a very fast phone., Battery life Ridiculously good.
- Screen Low-res for the size and price, just 60Hz., No expandable storage The baby version loses out on the microSD slot., S Pen is on the wrong side Unless you're left-handed, it's annoying taking the S Pen out from the left side.
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 review
It’s easy to love the Note 20’s S-Pen and the fun versatility of its triple-camera array. But its short battery life is testing, as is the sense that Samsung is really seeing how much profit it can squeeze out of each sale with this one, more so than usual.- Versatile three-camera array, S-Pen is brilliant, as ever, Strong performance
- Expensive for a phone with a plastic back, Lower-res screen than other Samsung flagships, Only has a 60Hz display
Samsung Galaxy Note 20
So let's do a recap of what we like about the Galaxy Note 20. We really liked the low-key design, S Pen, Samsung Notes app, the battery longevity, and camera performance. It's too bad the display doesn't have a 120Hz refresh rate though, and some of you may have wished it wasn't made mostly out of...
